Iowa man charged in killing tied to dice game

An Iowa man was ordered held without bail Tuesday for allegedly killing a man who tried to stop a fight that stemmed from an argument over a dice game on the South Side.

Emmanuel Harvey, who was working at an Oral-B toothbrush factory, was recently arrested out of state in the May 14 murder of 29-year-old Alvin Randolph.

Another man, Garland Benson, 26, also was ordered held without bail in July for the deadly shooting in the 6400 block of South Damen.
